Piers Morgan Destroyed on Twitter for Mocking Gun-Loving Florida Church

British television personality and journalist Piers Morgan took to Twitter on Sunday to criticize a sign posted at a church in Tampa Bay, Florida, which warned that “we are heavily armed” in order to protect churchgoers.

“Please know that this is not a gun free zone — we are heavily armed — any attempt will be dealt with deadly force — yes we are a church and we will protect our people,” the sign reads in all capital letters.

Morgan’s responded with disgust.

“This is not a sick joke. This is America’s response to the recent mass shooting at a church,” he tweeted.

Another user pointed out what he sees as hypocrisy from Morgan, asking if the TV personality’s show relies on armed guards for protection.

When you record your show do you have armed guards in the building? A lot of the events you attend probably have armed guards. I'm not sure why you don't get this, but let me repeat. We have the #2A. We're going to keep #2A. You are not required to ever come to the USA.
